Oh to be seen... "I've always been a pessimist, partly on the grounds that if you're wrong, you're happy, because things are actually better than you feared. "But if you're an optimist and you're wrong it's doubly awful, because not only were you wrong, but things are worse than you expected."

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

1/2 The wonderful Loud Jew Collective has been designated not Jewish enough to speak at the Royal Commission, so it’s on us to spread their media release. The RC is promoting the establishment messaging and silencing dissent. Please share this. #Auspol

Media Release
Loud Jew Collective condemns the anti-Palestinian racism on show at the Royal Commission

On 1st May Loud Jew Collective (LJC) was told by the Royal Commission that "the Commissioner is not satisfied that LJC has a direct and substantial interest in the scope of the hearing and has refused LJC leave to appear at Hearing Block 1."
This rejection is evidence of the irredeemably flawed state of the Royal Commission. A flaw confirmed by the relentless anti-Palestinian racism and Islamophobia that we have heard since the Royal Commission commenced this Hearing Block.
Hearing Block 1 has been purportedly examining "the nature and prevalence of antisemitism in Australia" and hearing from "witnesses about their lived experience of antisemitism."

LJC's submission focuses on the most prevalent forms of antisemitism that Collective members have experienced - that perpetrated by the far-right and by zionist Jews.
It incorporates a witness statement by Collective member Anny Mokotow and attached expert evidence by historian
Dr Jordana Silverstein.
Anny Mokotow's statement explained that "As LJC, we have always resisted our identity being subsumed by the idolatry of Israel. The myth of the 'Jew' as 'special' has become a political reality even if it is based on the notion of victimhood. We, as anti-Zionists, who refuse to use victimhood as a right to superiority are now othered by our own 'people'."

LJC's submission outlines many Collective members' lived experiences of antisemitism and situates this antisemitism within its appropriate contexts, demonstrating that in Australia it must be seen as a marginal form of racism.
Proper focus must instead be placed on the founding racism - that faced by First Nations people - as well as on the racism faced by Palestinians, Muslims, Arabs, and other significantly marginalised groups.
The Royal Commission's assertion that LJC's testimony is not relevant to their work in this Hearing Block is thus evidence of the anti-Palestinian racism at the core of both the Commission and Australian politics and media more generally.

Some context to the Iranian boat that was targeted by US off Sri Lanka coast Former Indian FM: “US was aware of the Iranian ship's presence in the exercise to which the US navy was invited but withdrew from participation at the last minute”

Kanwal Sibal @KanwalSibal • 6h

The Iranian ship will not be where it was if we had not invited it to talk part in our Milan exercise.
We were the hosts.
I am told that as per protocol for this exercise ships cannot carry any ammunition. It was defenceless.
The Iranian naval personnel had paraded before our president.
The attack by the US submarine was
premeditated as the US was aware of the Iranian ship's presence in the exercise to which the US navy was invited but withdrew from participation at the last minute, presumably with this operation in mind.
The US has ignored India's sensitivities as the ship was in these waters because of India's invitation.
We are far from politically or militarily responsible for the US attack.
Our"responsibility" is at a moral and human plane.
A word of condolence by the Indian Navy ( after political clearance) at the loss of lives of those who were our invitees and saluted our president would be in order.

Datacenters in space are a terrible, horrible, no good idea.

There is a rush for AI companies to team up with space launch/satellite companies to build datacenters in space. TL;DR: It's not going to work.
